Canonsburg, PA - December 15, 2020 - The Marcellus & Utica Gas Suppliers, Services, and Manufacturers Association (MUG) recently held their 3rd Annual Holiday Happy Hour in Southpointe. Proceeds from the well attended event benefitted the Range Resources® Toys for Tots® campaign. A record 21 companies sponsored the event and multiple companies donated door prizes and raffle items which allowed the event to raise even more money for Toys for Tots®. MUG purchased over $5,400 of toys with the proceeds from the event and dropped them off to Range Resources on December 9. Range Resources finished their toy drive on December 15 and dropped off all the toys from their drive to the Washington Alliance Church in Washington, PA. All the toys from this drive will be distributed to children within Washington County this holiday season.
